Best Time to Visit Barbados

Mid December to mid April is the peak tourist season. The weather is cool, tempered by the trade winds and the oppressive humidity experienced during the rainy season is also over. However, prices are at their highest during this period with a noticeable drop during the off season. Also, the beaches and other local attractions are pretty crowded.

The official hurricane season is from June 1 to October 31 though September poses the worst threat.

Climate

The strong Caribbean sun would be quite unbearable were it not for the trade winds that act as a natural air conditioner. The temperature varies little through the year and the so- called winter month’s means a marginal fall in the temperatures. Barbados receives its fair share of rainfall with July being the wettest month. Late winter, February to May, is the dry period.
